Video Object Tracking with PMHT
AbstractTarget detection and tracking in video data is a complex problem. Especially for designing and developing surface to air tracking systems should be dealt with this problem strictly. In this study a combination of an image processing technique and Probabilistic Multi-Hypothesis Tracker (PMHT) is used. The target is discriminated from the video data for target initiation. In the subsequent steps the same discrimination method is used to obtain proper data for track continuation. For target identification from video data a transformation is used and target based pixels are discriminated from the background. Then image is transformed into point measurement data with amplitude information. Thus, video data is made suitable for tracking with PMHT. The resulting algorithm performs target detection and tracking operations automatically.
